Chapter 37 Third Soul Skill, Getting to Know Chrysanthemum Douluo.
Jiang Nian silently retreated behind Bibi Dong, watching the commotion ahead.
Those people lured the soul beast here and ran away quickly.
But they still remembered to remind him, which is quite remarkable.
Thump thump thump~
Trees collapsed, and the earth shook.
Jiang Nian held the Heavenly Dao Umbrella, ready for battle at any moment.
"Roar!"
A roar came, and Bibi Dong suddenly opened her eyes, activating the Killing God Domain.
The previously extremely angry Flaming Lion's eyes now became clear, and the lion cubs behind it were all frightened and shrank back.
"Hmm? Strange..."
Jiang Nian was surprised. This ten-thousand-year-old soul beast actually brought its own people out to their deaths, it was simply...
Bibi Dong turned her gaze to the most robust child behind the Flaming Lion, and a smile appeared on her lips: "Little Nian, a six thousand five hundred-year-old fire attribute soul beast, how about it?"
"Okay." Jiang Nian replied.
Then, he looked at this family of soul beasts and was speechless. Everyone else was delivering their soul rings one by one, but this guy came out and delivered them all.
In this situation, there was no other way but to kill them all.
Half a minute later. Bibi Dong leisurely sat back in her chair, waiting for Jiang Nian to finish absorbing the soul ring.
Guided by soul power, the soul ring floated around him.
The absorption process was flawless, perfectly synchronized.
Jiang Nian opened his eyes, comfortably twisting his body, his whole body crackling.
He seemed to have grown a tiny bit more.
"Tell me, how was the harvest?" Bibi Dong looked at her manicured nails and asked softly.
Jiang Nian organized his thoughts.
"The third soul skill is called—Flame Rain. It grants 100% immunity to fire elements and can absorb enemy fire attacks, converting 50% of them."
"When using fire attribute power, there's a 100% bonus, and a chance to create an explosion effect, doubling the amplification."
Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on her lips.
"So, the maximum increase is 300%?"
"And this immunity..."
Jiang Nian nodded, suddenly feeling his luck was running low.
"Not bad... Now that we've absorbed the spirit rings, let's leave."
"By the way, burn these spirit beast corpses and see if any spirit bones drop."
Jiang Nian agreed, raising his hand to control the flames and incinerate the corpses.
However, no spirit bones dropped.
The two didn't mind; if any thousand-year-old or ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast could drop spirit bones, then these things would be worthless.
"Let's go back to the Spirit Hall."
The next day at noon.
The carriage entered Spirit City, and Jiang Nian had finished consolidating his cultivation. He was now stable at level thirty-three.
He got off midway, and Bibi Dong again made him get off to buy food.
"Really... let those maids take care of me..."
Jiang Nian rubbed his backside, looking around but not seeing his ATM.
Helpless, he had no choice but to pay.
Half an hour later, Jiang Nian arrived at the elegant residence behind the Papal Palace.
This was Bibi Dong's new residence, and the fragrance of flowers greeted him as soon as he entered.
"Teacher, please eat first. I'm going back to cultivate."
The young woman frowned slightly, but ultimately waved for him to leave.
Stepping out of the Papal Palace, Jiang Nian felt a little more at ease.
Wandering around, he suddenly smelled many floral scents.
Just from that one whiff, he could name four or five different flowers and plants.
Jiang Nian curiously approached and saw a person dressed in black robes bending over and moving around restlessly, seemingly planting flowers, not defecating.
"Hmm? Who's there?"
A shrill voice rang out, and Jiang Nian instantly recognized the person.
"Greetings, Elder Ju."
Yue Guan stroked his chin, sized him up for a moment, and then smiled. "So you're His Holiness the Pope's disciple."
"What brings you here?"
Jiang Nian clasped his hands in a respectful greeting and smiled gently. "I was drawn by the fragrance of the flowers, and since I'm quite interested in plants, I instinctively came to Your Majesty's territory."
Yue Guan's expression brightened, and he dusted off his hands, quickly walking up to him. "You...you also like plants?!"
"Yes."
Jiang Nian took the opportunity to name a few immortal herbs and share his understanding of plants, and Yue Guan instantly embraced him as if he were a kindred spirit.
"In all my years in the Spirit Hall, this is the first time I've met someone like you."
Jiang Nian stiffly extended his hand, which Yue Guan grasped firmly.
"I know you're excited too, aren't you?"
"Tell me, what do you want? You can take any of the flowers and herbs I have here!"
Jiang Nian coughed: "Elder Ju, I'm a little dizzy."
Yue Guan's smile froze, and he quickly released him.
"Cough cough~"
Jiang Nian saw him become serious in a second and thought to himself.
"Elder Ju, I want to learn more about flowers and herbs. I wonder if you have any good books or anything like that here."
Yue Guan nodded, then took out a thick booklet from his storage soul tool.
"This is the information I've compiled throughout my life. It might be useful to you."
"You can name a few immortal herbs, so I know you're someone who loves flowers and herbs very much."
Yue Guan suddenly became serious, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the sky.
"I wonder if I'll ever see one in my lifetime."
"If you can, then you'll have no regrets in this life."
Jiang Nian hugged the thick notebook, flipped through a few pages, and then threw it into his spatial bracelet.
"That day will definitely come."
Yue Guan nodded, then looked at him with admiration in his eyes.
"Jiang Nian, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'll answer them for you personally."
"Take any of these flowers and herbs you like."
He patted his chest generously after saying this.
Jiang Nian thanked him and then bid farewell to Yue Guan, returning to his residence.
The Holy Maiden's Palace was quickly becoming the Holy Son's Palace.
In the following days, besides attending classes and reporting his progress to Bibi Dong, Jiang Nian also went to Chrysanthemum Douluo to learn about flowers and herbs.
He was originally alone, but later Qian Renxue and Jin Yue'er came along.
However, the two of them just lay in the garden sunbathing, occasionally stealing the flowers and fruits planted by Yue Guan.
Yue Guan was helpless against these two little devils.
Fortunately, Jiang Nian's serious attitude towards learning slightly eased his almost broken heart.
"Little Nian, look at this three-leaved, blue-tinged grass, it's called Qinglan Grass."
"It has detoxifying and heat-clearing effects. If you accidentally get poisoned outside, eating this can usually cure it."
Jiang Nian's eyes lit up; he'd take it, it was all good stuff.
Afterwards, Yue Guan personally demonstrated how to dig them up.
Each type of herb requires a slightly different technique; haphazard handling could damage their medicinal properties.
Jiang Nian studied very diligently.
Meanwhile, the little golden retriever wanted to eat anything that looked appealing.
"Yue'er, look how pretty this mushroom is... do you want to try some?"
